{{quote|"Can you imagine all of these URLs aren't taken? verynaughtynuns.com, slightlynaughtynuns.com, nunscoveredinbutter.com... There's a whole untapped nun-fetish market out there!

'''Naughty Nuns''' withhave [[Just for Pun|bad habits]].
 
Nuns are women who have dedicated their lives to religious service, poverty, and chastity. In the land of fiction, they complete the Fetish Trio right up there with [[Naughty Nurse Outfit|Nurses]] and [[French Maid Outfit|Maids.]]
Line 10:
There is just something about nuns that [[Fetish Fuel|turns a lot of guys on.]] Maybe it's the [[Nuns Are Spooky|mystery]] of it all. After all, they wear the elaborate robes and [[Women's Mysteries|live in secret, away from men]]. Maybe it's the [[Forbidden Fruit]] factor: you cannot have them, so, ironically, they become more appealing.
 
If a nun is fetishized, expect her habit to be far shorter and tighter than anything you would see in a real convent. Additionally, most [[Nuns Are Mikos]] in [[Anime]]. Any [[Church Militant]] nun, by nature of not only being a nun but an [[Action Girl]], will tend to follow this trope. Because [[Action Girl|Action Girls]]s are always sexy.
 
Christian nuns are by far the most common in fiction, but there are Buddhist, Taoist, and Hindu nuns too. This trope actually dates back to [[Older Than You Think|Middle Ages]], as the literature and songs of the time often paint convents as "houses of vice" because it was, after all, [[All Women Are Lustful|a building full of women]], making this one of the [[Older Than Print|oldest]] [[Porn Tropes]] in Western history.

== Advertising ==
* In the 1960s, there was [httphttps://web.archive.org/web/20210829033625/https://www.epson-kunstbetrieb.de/language/de/content/artists/aID/34/pID/122/prev/ an ad for the German soft drink]{{Dead link}} brand Afri Cola which implied this trope.
 
 
== Anime and Manga ==
* ''[[Chrono Crusade]]'': Rosette Christopher (pictured above). On the other hand, flirting with her [[Badass|can have]] [[Action Girl|very serious]] [[Tsundere|implications]].
* Somewhat noted in ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'' when Misora was forced to wear a miniskirted habit as a part of the class' "cafe". She prayed for the Lord's forgiveness. That said, she and Sister Shakti ''are'' kinda cute, and the skirts on their ''real'' habits are short enough as it is.
* The [[Captain Obvious|Korean manhwa]] ''[[Rebirth]]'' features a ''very'' God-fearing nun in a ''very'' [[Stripperiffic]] outfit.
* Knight Carim, Sister Schach, [[Time Skip|and later]], {{spoiler|Sein, Otto and Dido}}, of the [[Crystal Dragon Jesus|Belkan Saint Church]] fill the [[Moe Moe]] nun quota for ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'', though their habits are pretty modest. On the other hand, Sister Schach's battle armour consists of a sleeveless top, hotpants and pretty good [[Zettai Ryouiki]].
Line 34 ⟶ 33:
* Sister Angela from ''[[One Pound Gospel]]''. Played with in that she is extremely devoted to her faith, and while she might harbor some feelings for Kosaku, she does her best to keep them platonic. Likewise, Kosaku's enormous crush on her doesn't keep him from dating other girls.
* Zange from ''[[Kannagi]]''.
* Melpha from ''~[[Queen's Blade~]]''. It's hard to not see her as sexual, from her gigantic breasts to her "holy poses". In ''Rebellion'', there is Siggy. Instead of being ashamed when she does the poses, she does them willingly...shame that she burns people for practicing magic, or science.
* When Sato from ''[[Welcome to The NHK]]'' first meets Misaki and discovers she apparently has religious reasons for wanting to help him cure his [[Hikikomori]] ways, he has fantasies about her wearing a nun's habit while touching herself and moaning "No! I shouldn't! It's a sin!"
** Though this isn't explored further in the anime, the manga reveals that while her uncle and aunt are very religious Christians, she only goes along with them because they've been so kind to her; she holds no religious beliefs whatsoever.
* Sister Teresa Beria of ''[[Seikon no Qwaser]]''. Doubles as an action girl, but in her very first action scene she bares her chest so her partner Sasha can drink Soma and power up..
* Most [[Nuns Are Mikos|nuns]] in ''[[ToA AruCertain Majutsu noMagical Index]]'' wear relatively reasonable habits, considering the ridiculousness of what they actually do, but one, Sister Agnese, upon her return is wearing a habit that is more [http://img256.imageshack.us/img256/2876/agnese1ep15.png holey] than [[A Worldwide Punomenon|holy]].
* [https://isekai-maou.fandom.com/wiki/Lumachina_Weselia Lumachina] in ''[[How NOT to Summon a Demon Lord]]'', a [[Reluctant Fanservice Girl]], given the [[World of Buxom]] setting.
 
 
== Comic Books ==
Line 48 ⟶ 47:
* ''[[Viz]]'' subverted this with the one-off Topless Skateboard Nun as she isn't naughty at all, just [[Innocent Fanservice Girl|topless]].
* ''6666'', the sequel of ''666'' (about demons invading Earth in 2000) has a naughty ''female pope''.
* In ''[[Fifty Two52]]'', Whisper A'Daire is priestess of the [[Religion of Evil|Religion Of Crime]] whom Renee actually ''calls'' a Naughty Nun. Unfortunately, neither the "naughty" or "nun" vibe really came across on the page, something that [[Greg Rucka]] felt was just lost in the translation from script to final product.
* [[X Men 2099]] had Sister Nicholas of the Sisters of the Howling Commandments...
 
Line 57 ⟶ 56:
* In the film within an film of ''[[How To Lose Friends And Alienate People]]'', [[Megan Fox]] plays a younger and sexier Mother Teresa ... and ends up winning an Apollo award for it.
* ''[[Hudson Hawk]]'' includes a nun {{spoiler|and she's undercover}}.
** She also {{spoiler|leaves the order to marry Hudson Hawk.}}
* Inverted when the Angels masquerade as nuns in the second ''[[Charlie's Angels]]'' movie.
* In ''[[Shoot'Em Up (film)|Shoot Em Up]]'', the hero takes the baby he has rescued from thugs who murdered his mother to a building that looks like a convent, and the door is opened by a young woman dressed as a nun. He barges in, and when she turns around in shock to follow him it's revealed that her costume has the rear end cut out of it, revealing that she is wearing some decidedly un-nunlike lingerie underneath and cluing the audience in to the fact that the building is actually a... [[Get Thee to a Nunnery|"nunnery"]].
* Low-budget cult film ''[[Roller Blade]]'' features naked lesbian roller skating nuns.
* In the Pedro Almodóvar movie ''[[Dark Habits]]'', the nuns are naughty in a wide variety of ways; they're sadomasochistic lesbians, drug addicts (and pushers), writers of erotic novels, and various other sins.
* Ken Russell's ''[[The Devils]]'' is full of [[Naughty Nuns]], led by Sister Jeanne, who has lurid sexual fantasies about Father Urbain Grandier, the film's male protagonist (including one in which she imagines him {{spoiler|coming down from the cross to couple with her}}. Unfortunately, this is part of a [[Sanity Slippage]], and ultimately results in some serious [[Squick]]. Depending on [[Executive Meddling|what cut of the film you're watching]], there's even more explicit naughtiness from Sister Jeanne's fellow nuns. It is [[Based on a True Story]].
* In the 1974 film ''Seijû gakuen'' aka ''School of the Holy Beast'', the 'convent' is run much like a school for wayward girls, including the typical girl-on-girl catfight. They seem to find themselves getting into and out of their habits with alarming frequency due to their constant showering and [[Les Yay|friendly experimentation]], though they do engage in more nun-like activities from time to time, such as praying, scrubbing floors and whipping newcomers with thorned roses to keep it spicy. Pinku Eiga and [[Naughty Nuns]] are a perfect match.
* While she's probably not taken any oaths, the papal agent in the French film ''[[Brotherhood of the Wolf]]'' masquerades as a prostitute.
* Castle Anthrax in ''[[Monty Python and Thethe Holy Grail]]'' is populated by 8-score blondes and brunettes between the ages of 17 and 19 and a half, in pseudo-nun habits, with a Grail-shaped beacon atop the castle.
** And the punishment for lighting the beacon is a spanking... for both the nun that lit it ''and'' every other sister in the castle.
{{quote| '''Dingo:''' And then, the ''oral sex''!}}
* Sister Sara in ''[[Two Mules For Sister Sara]]'' is a whiskey drinking, cigarette smoking nun {{spoiler|Who it turns out belongs to the ''other'' kind of Nunnery (ie: the best damn Cathouse in town).}}
* Averted in the 1967 ''[[Bedazzled]]'' when Stanley's wish that he and Margaret were in love each other in a setting far removed from the crass modern world has the two of them turned to nuns in a convent. Nun Margaret is in love with the nun Stanley, but will not act on her feelings.
Line 73 ⟶ 72:
* Angelica from ''[[Pirates of the Caribbean]]: On Stranger Tides'' was about to take her vows at a Spanish convent when Jack showed up. He'd mistaken it for a brothel, honest mistake.
** Well, it ''was'' a [[Get Thee to a Nunnery|Nunnery]]...
* Kate Upton in a "nun-kini" in the 2012 film version of ''[[The Three Stooges]]''. [https://web.archive.org/web/20130831061835/http://abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/slideshow/kate-upton-three-stooges-stars-on-set-3398177 See for yourself.]
 
== Folklore ==
* This Trope is [[Older Than They Think]], as the legend of [[w:Cockaigne|Cockaigne]] claims that this perfect utopia where sexual liberty is open, and while they do have a clergy, nuns are just as liberated, wearing scant and revealing clothing.
 
== Jokes ==
Line 86 ⟶ 87:
== Literature ==
* [[Older Than Print]]: ''The [[Decameron]]'' has a couple of stories of unchaste nuns.
* The novel ''[[Henry Esmond]]'' seems to allude to this trope via a subversion -- thesubversion—the title character is in the English army and they are raping and pillaging and he rescues a nun from the violence. The listeners of his account expect that she is young and pretty and that a romance might develop but is instead old and ugly.
 
 
== Live Action TV ==
* In ''[[Californication]]'''s infamous opening scene, David Duchovny's character has a dream in which he is serviced by a nun.
* When the original ''[[Blackadder]]'' finds himself appointed as Archbishop of Canterbury, he finds that the 'sexual favours of nuns' are a major source of income for the Church, along with curses and pardons. Baldric mentions that many sales are to other nuns (and Edmund's surprise isn't that nuns offer sexual favours, but that "some people actually ''pay''"). He also has a secret passage to a nunnery in his bedchambers, which leads to an...[[Not What It Looks Like|interesting scene]] with two drunken would-be imitators of the knights who slew Thomas Becket.
* Australian skit comedy show ''[[Skithouse]]'' had a scene with a group of people waiting for the bus, among them a Catholic nun. A voiceover asks "Can you tell which one hasn't had any sex?", and then an arrow appears, pointing to a man chatting with the nun.
* ''[[Married... with Children]]'': A nunnery hired Kelly to advertise their olive oil, dressed as a nun. She couldn't fulfill the morals clause in her contract. Bud manages to get his "chaste" mother the part, but she hardly acted nunly.
Line 100 ⟶ 101:
* The cover for the Monks' 1979 album ''Bad Habits'' shows a cigarette-smoking nun with habit hiked up to reveal garters and stockings.
* The music video for Billy Idol's cover of "L.A. Woman" features an attractive blonde woman dressing fetishistically as a nun. When Idol pursues her she doesn't keep the habit on for long.
* "Don't Tell Mama" -- one—one of the songs from ''[[Cabaret]]'' -- involves—involves Sally Bowles dressed as a nun and doing a strip tease.
{{quote| "Mama thinks I'm living in a convent,<br />
A secluded little convent,<br />
In the southern part of France.<br />
Mama doesn't even have an inkling,<br />
That I'm working in a nightclub,<br />
In a pair of lacy pants." }}
* The French Celine Dion song "La Religieuse" ("The Nun") describes the internal conflict of a nun tortured by her memories of a life of passion.
* [[The Beatles (band)|The Beatles]] give us:
{{quote| "Crabalocker fishwife<br />
Pornographic priestess<br />
Boy, you've been a naughty girl<br />
You let your knickers down" }}
* ''[[The Bob and Tom Show]]'' had a very humorous poem describing a nun, stuck on a broken-down bus with a bunch of kids on a church outing, strongly tempted to join a passing group of Hell's Angels.
* Skyclad's song, "Spinning Jeny"
{{quote| She whispered of her innocence - (a plea I must contest)<br />
While baptising helpless sinners with a missionary zest<br />
She will exorcise your demons - then exercise your thighs<br />
Await your 'second-coming' with a hunger in her eyes. }}
* Mercyful Fate song "Nuns Have No Fun".
Line 124 ⟶ 125:
* "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ia2c-b5Eyk Wash my blood]", by Megurine Luka, is supposed to be about a nun who lost her virginity and became a nymphomaniac. YMMV though...
* [[Alice Cooper]]'s song "Sister Sara" from his album ''Dragon Town''.
* [[QueensrycheQueensrÿche]]: Sister Mary in "Spreading The Disease".
 
 
== Theater ==
* Appears rather disturbingly in [[William Shakespeare]]'s ''[[Measure for Measure]]'', when Angelo begins to develop an obsession with defiling Isabella. There was actually a modern production done of the play that plays up the fetishization to eleven, with whips and chains and things.
{{quote| The impression of keen whips I'd wear as rubies,<br />
And strip myself to death, as to a bed<br />
That longing have been sick for, ere I'd yield<br />
My body up to shame. }}
** "Nunnery" was apparently slang for a brothel in Shakespeare's day, which is how he uses it in ''[[Hamlet]].''
Line 138 ⟶ 139:
 
== Tabletop Games ==
* The Sisters of Battle in ''[[Warhammer 4000040,000]]'' are an entire army of [[In Space|space]] Nuns that alternate between dripping with assorted fetish appeal, and subverting the hell out of it, sometimes on the same units/models. Case in point: Sisters Repentia, who are depicted in the models as women in loincloths and half-corsets, with cloths over their heads and [[BFS|massive]] [[Chainsaw Good|chainsaw]] [[BFS|swords]] (and let's not get into the [[Whip It Good|Mistress who leads them]]). Compare with a picture of a Repentia in their codex, who is entirely naked, wearing only parchments that are pinned directly onto her flesh with spikes.
** And the [[Ciaphas Cain]] novel ''Cain's Last Stand'' now confirms said [[Naughty Nuns]] are [[Fetish Fuel|not required to be celibate.]] Cue the [[Squee]] from 40K fetish fans. (To clarify, he's talking about one of the more normal, power-armor-using, flamethrower-wielding ones. So, uh, ''somewhat'' more normal.)
** There happens to be quite a large body of fanfiction on the subject, actually...
*** The Sororitas [[Word of God|Codex]] states in no uncertain terms that the Sisters are all sworn to celibacy. Cain or whomever he got the idea from is evidently indulging in a bit of [[Unreliable Narrator|Unreliable Narration]].
Line 152 ⟶ 153:
** Actually, it has been stated that Ciel isn't really a nun. She just likes to [[Cosplay|dress up as one]] when she fights. At the very least, she would be considered a [[Knight Templar]], considering how fanatical she can get when hunting "heretics". Caren, on the other hand...
* ''[[Guilty Gear]]'''s Bridget. Of course, there's something a bit [[Wholesome Crossdresser|off]] [[Dude Looks Like a Lady|with this]] [[Dropped a Bridget On Him|Nun]]...
* Prier from ''[[La Pucelle]]''. Actually lamphaded in one chapter, where another character tries to call her out on her outfit, only for Prier to retort that hers isn't much better. At this point, they both remember [[Dirty Old Man|who ''gave'' them their outfits...]]
* ''[[Arcana Heart]]'''s Clarice di Lanza. Not only she is a nurse, she is also quite impure, starting from her demon heritage (but [[Dark Is Not Evil|she's not 100% evil]]) and her light and very playful personality.
* ''[[Darkstalkers]]'''s Felicia becomes a Nun on her ''[[Darkstalkers|Vampire Savior]]'' ending. She ''is'' naked under the habit. There's also her [[Flung Clothing]] intro pose in ''[[Capcom vs. Whatever|Marvel vs Capcom 2]]''.
* ''[[Ragnarok Online]]'' has the Priestess class, which are dressed like nuns with outfits slit up the side, to where you can see stockings and garters. Before a patch changed them to something that resembles bike shorts, their death animation included a [[Panty Shot]].
* Natasha from ''[[Fire Emblem: theThe Sacred Stones|Fire Emblem 8]]'' is a subdued version of this trope. She is a cleric who dresses more like an Edwardian-era bride than a traditional nun.
* While not explicitly nuns (only because the churches of the Light don't segregate by gender), [http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=3977#screenshots:id=51422 High Inquisitor Whitemane] and [http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=34102#screenshots:id=126382 Argent Confessor Paletress] in ''[[World of Warcraft]]'' are both devout holy women who happen to wear [[Fetish Fuel|bikinis and garter belts]] in lieu of pants. (In Paletress's case, to wear them in [[Meaningful Name|Icecrown]].)
* ''[[The Witcher]]'': Not really an analogue of Catholic nuns, but members of a monastic order of nurses wear the habit. Geralt gets two of them in the neutral endgame, something of a consolation for [[Everything Trying to Kill You]].
{{quote| "And afterward, we'll pray!"}}
* ''[[Assassin's Creed II]]'' has a strange, invoked example. In Venice, you will find La Rosa Della Virtù, a bordello owned by Sister Teodora, a former Catholic nun, and is staffed by former nuns. She gives her reasons to why she equates her bordello to a nunnery (she considers herself a nun by her own brand of faith), some points cover the indiscretions of monks and priests of the time ([[Hypocritical Humor|who label those same things as evil]]), and how in some ways, it helps men better than a confessional does.
* Leliana from ''[[Dragon Age: Origins]]'' is a lay sister who's [[Gay Option|bisexual]] and a former [[MataSeductive HariSpy]], and admits to sometimes ogling her fellow Sisters.
* Alice Elliott of ''[[Shadow Hearts]]'' fame sort of qualifies. She's not evil or even particularly promiscuous, but whenever she's onscreen it's a [[Panty Shot]] moment (you'd think a pious, God-fearing [[The Ingenue|sweet-and-innocent]] girl like her would [[Show Some Leg|show a bit less leg]]. Plus she likes [[Improbable Weapon User|to hit enemies]][[Throw the Book At Them|with her Bibles]].
* The protagonist of ''[[Twin Blades]]''.
* [[Fetish Fuel Station Attendant|And yes,]] ''[[Bayonetta]]'' has touched this fetish as well.
* ''[[Brutal Legend|Brütal Legend]]'''s Battle Nuns. Demonic, yes, but also naughty.
{{quote| '''Eddie''': No, wait, I know this one. I'm supposed to think you're all sexy and stuff, but when you turn around, you'll be all demon-y. (Battle Nun turns around and is indeed demon-y) HA! Knew it! ...though you're still kind of hot in a kinky sort of way.}}
* The nuns of the Order of the Mysterium in ''[[Anachronox]]'' all wear red bodysuits with hoods, black thighboots with heels, elbow-length black gloves and a hardly-covering white tabard. They (and the monks) take vows of chastity, although at least one monk and sister don't let it get in their way, as you may overhear from them. You also find one nun in the Red District on Sender Station, having taken up a new profession... while still wearing her old outfit.
* [[Time Splitters|Jo-Beth Casey]] was originally in nun attire. Considering her outfit in a later game has a shirt with "SLUT" across it, there may be implications to note.
* Obviously ''Bonetown'' would have a naughty nun, located at the Downtown church.
* Seika Kamori, a [[Hentai]] game character and [[Demon Slayer|demon-fighting]] [[Church Militant|battle-nun]] designed by Rindou Aya, who dresses in a [[Spy Catsuit]]-like, sexualized parody of real-life nuns' habits. Did we say that she repeatedly becomes a victim to [[Naughty Tentacles]]?
* In ''[[World of Warcraft]]'', this Trope is inadvertently expressed by [https://wow.gamepedia.com/Argent_Confessor_Paletress Ardent Confessor Paletress]. Supposedly, she tries to purge impure thoughts from any who would oppose the Lich King, and players have often commented how that is possible when simply ''looking'' at her might cause such thoughts. [[Fridge Brilliance| Unless that's the whole idea.]]
 
 
== Webcomics ==
* ''[[DumnestorsDumnestor's Heroes]]'' has the end-all result of this trope (as well as a brilliant [[Lampshade Hanging]]): The adventuring party decides to rest overnight at a temple of Tythus, the river god. Cliche: Tythus's temples are staffed by virgin priestesses. Lampshade: Said virgin priestesses are [https://web.archive.org/web/20081123002114/http://www.moderntales.com/memberimages/dh_0202.gif forbidden by their faith] to wear clothes, but are otherwise [[Innocent Fanservice Girl|perfectly innocent priestesses]]. Subversion: The party is made up of a female human (who doesn't care), a male dwarf (who doesn't care), and a male elf-turned-human (who ''does'' care, and is freaked out by it). <ref>[[[Noodle Incident]] |This is apparently due to a tradition]] involving a sculptor creating 1 statue per major river, a horny river god animating them, and a 5th dimensional love triangle</ref> -- but the explanation [[The Un-Reveal|was cut off]].</ref> This is ''down'' from the original 100 or so virgin nudists that the god ''used'' to have.]]
* At one point in ''[[Miss Dynamite]]'', Eva is captured and brainwashed by the Catholic Church in order to kill heathens. [http://www.missdynamite.com/comics/spgm/index.php?spgmGal=sister%20dynamite&spgmPic=6&spgmFilters=#pic She gets a sexy costume and a sword out of it.]
* The Little Sisters of Belial from ''[[Scary Go Round]]'' are basically a bunch of promiscuous punk chicks in nun habit. When Rachel takes them over and tries to use them in her revenge plot, they aren't too happy about it.
